The ransomware group KillSec claimed responsibility for a cyberattack on MedicSolution, a software provider serving Brazil's healthcare sector, on September 8, 2025, threatening to leak stolen data unless negotiations were initiated.
MedicSolution delivers cloud-based software for clinic and practice management. The root cause of the incident was a misconfigured AWS cloud buckets that were left exposed, allowing unauthorized remote access without requiring actual penetration into MedicSolution's internal systems.
The group claims to have obtained more than 34 GB of data comprising 94,818 files including:
- Medical evaluations and assessments
- Laboratory test results
- X-ray images
- Unredacted patient photographs, including images showing body parts
- Records related to minors
- Personally identifiable information (PII)
The stolen files appear to involve multiple institutions: Vita Exame, Clinica Especo Vida, Centro Diagnostico Toledo, Labclinic, and Laboratório Alvaro, among others.
The exact number of affected individuals has not been disclosed. MedicSolution has not issued a public response regarding the incident.
